About Whales
The largest mammal on the planet is the water-dwelling whale, even larger than the largest of the dinosaurs. There are many different types of whales, ranging in size from the dwarf, or pigmy, sperm whale, that is 8.5 feet long up to the blue whale, that is about 115 feet in length. The blue whale was about the same length as a Brachiosaurus, yet the whale's weight is about 170–190 tons, while in comparison the Brachiosaurus weighed only about 70-80 tons.
About Giving Birth
Giving birth is one of the most exciting and moving of human events. What used to be a sedated experience for the mother is now most often a joint effort in which the mother is very much aware of what is going on. Sometimes her husband or a birth partner is there to help and encourage her.
About Birth
Birth is an event in which a new being emerges from another being. Among animals, a birth can be from an egg or a ''live birth,'' as in the case of mammals. For human, birth has become less dangerous for mothers; but even with modern medicine, there are risks. A healthy birth is more likely if the mother is under a doctor's from the moment she knows she is pregnant.
